Pankaj Tripathi taken on board for Irrfan Khan starrer ‘Angrezi Medium’

Pankaj Tripathi is one of the finest actors we have in Bollywood now. He has won the hearts of the audiences with his roles in movies like ‘Stree’, ‘Luka Chuppi’, ‘Bareilly Ki Barfi’ and others. Now, he has been taken on board for Dinesh Vijan’s ‘Angrezi Medium’. He will have a cameo appearance in the Irrfan Khan starrer.

Pankaj told Mid-Day, “It is my love and respect for Irrfan and my friendship with Dinoo [Dinesh Vijan] that made me say yes.”

He will be playing the role of Tony, a wheeler-dealer who runs a travel agency and helps Khan’s character and his on-screen daughter to reach the UK.

Mr. Tripathi has worked in most of Dinesh Vijan’s movies. While talking about the actor, Dinesh said, “He is my lucky mascot; I find a way to include him in my films. He’s a huge admirer of Irrfan and was more than happy to lend himself in a small way.”

Talking about ‘Angrezi Medium’, it is a sequel to ‘Hindi Medium’ that starred Irrfan Khan and Pakistani actress Saba Qamar. Irrfan is making his comeback in Bollywood after a long treatment of neuroendocrine tumour in London. Irrfan’s look has come out and fans can’t wait to watch the movie.

The shoot had kickstarted in Udaipur. Directed by Homi Adajania, the movie also stars Radhika Madan, Deepak Dobriyal, Manu Rishi and apparently, Kareena Kapoor Khan.
